As the father of a middle schooler I have seen the rebellion against AI forming there — even using “that’s AI, bro,” not indicating something is literally AI, but that something is metaphorically so — it’s sus, it’s bullshit, it’s bad weird

One hopes images like this, when paired with the knowledge that everything we burn ends up in that tiny slice of gasses, would help contextualize why we need to move away from energy sources we set on fire. One hopes. Climate communicators should make some hay of this.

We should never have stopped calling conservatives “weird”

a lot of people are struggling right now, but at least some very special boys get six figures and gold-plated benefits to drive around a cybertruck and play with their drone

Hey, Rick Scott, with the literal millions you’re on the hook for, I don’t think you should be around the word “impeachment” because it can happen to you too, buckaroo.

If a roomful of lawyers can’t make this case then what are we even doing here folks

the game plan is to do the right thing. this idea that the brilliant democratic plan of rolling over for fascism is working so great isnt borne out by results. push impeachment. republicans oppose it? then make the case to the public that the entire enterprise is a criminal org.

these people are constantly like this. "oh whats your plan for getting impeachment if we dont have the votes?" they ask, like this is some brilliant gotcha. you push for the right thing. when the other guy opposes it, you beat them over the head with it. this is basic-ass politics.

my selection of silly food buttons has become even sillier. you can get them here! 🥦🍓🍑🌽🍿🍔☕🥗🍤🥞

I was on a panel with Leland years ago. Then we went to the airport straight after. Then we ended up on the same plane. So we swapped seats to keep talking. Then we had a long layover and had lunch together. And reader, Leland Melvin is EVERY FUCKING BIT as awesome and sweet as you think he is.

Stocks soar on 2-week postponement of Armageddon.

Armageddon postponed. As you were.

DONNY TWO WEEKS IS BACK EVERYBODY!

"absolutely no votes to confirm judges, cabinet members, or to advance or fund any policies for presidents that openly say they will end entire civilizations" is actually an extremely fucking moderate position

please make this a thing for the whole school i need to hear 100,000 people belt the shit out of this song

"i didn't vote for this"

This is why we shouldn't bother trying to appeal to this idiot demographic

"Why don't Americans-" The ruling class of America has intentionally disempowered its citizens spread across 3,000+ miles of land and then funded the police force as an occupying army that happily murders anyone who opposes them and imprisons whoever is left as slave laborers. So phone calls it is

I think people are allowed to draw conclusions about the American people based on their decision to put this man in office bsky.app/profile/pear...

Literally Roman emperor behavior

The Moon: oh wow you guys decided to come back Artemis II crew: earth’s haunted

Good morning, beloved. Attention is currency. Spend it wisely. Today is a great day to overcome evil with good.

i don’t know if i can express this well but the artemis II is more than just a testament to the value of exploration. it’s a reminder of what’s at stake here, the dignity of the experience of being alive, the literal miracle of every human you will ever meet, and all we’re capable of together.

It's actually remarkably easy to not ever use ChatGPT.

Literally this tho. Every time some pro-AI educators says we have to teach kids how to use this bc it's already out there, my response is that kids are doing underage drinking too and we aren't advocating for putting bar carts in the classroom.

Okay guys they've gone behind the Moon so it's time for us to put our ape masks on This is going to be HILARIOUS

don't think the US SNL would have been allowed to get away with this one

The whole point of generations of teachers saying "show your math" was to ensure that the student understood the process for arriving at the correct answer, so how is a black box that never reveals how it thinks supposed to help kids learn?

Also… teens gathering in a public place isn’t a crime just because it makes you nervous.

This is the best Dems can do on messaging. Talking about decorum. They remain disappointing. My kingdom for an opposition party that actually opposed this right wing regime.

Kein Scheiß, Sherlock

“Early on the first day of the week, while it was still dark, Mary Magdalene went to the tomb and saw that the stone had been removed from the entrance.”

It's impolite to call Musk a genocidal white nationalist because "civility" in American discourse functions not as a neutral procedural norm but as an asymmetric weapon to shield the powerful from accurate moral characterization while policing the tone of those who object.

Ok, actually this headline is hilarious.

What’s wild is people will get snitty if you point out there hasn’t been nearly enough pushback on this.

I almost died from Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever as a child

guys, bluesky is dying. if we don't start getting more likes, a greedy developer will bulldoze the site to put up a parking garage. the only thing that can save it is for a ragtag crew of misfits to put on one last big concert at the community center.

this would be an amazing way for It to happen

The world if MBA brains didn’t constantly talk about “growth”

The version of Robin Hood that’s closest to the spirit of the legend is still the Disney version

More things should be in black and white, not to evoke a sense of the material being old but just because some things look cool in black and white!

You mean the sequence where every camera move goes left to right?

gotta go my rides here

Makes total sense. The prequels treated the Force like video game power ups and these weirdos love trying to defend those movies while denigrating the sequels.

And a last thing, comedy wrestling IS pro wrestling. Some of the greatest to ever do this had a comedy phase and often times, it’s viewed as their best work. Getting a laugh does not negate the hard work that goes behind the art.

That’s not a Powerglide. That’s a Starscream. Come on.
